기중성 남세균, Wilmottia murrayi (Oscillatoriales, Cyanobacteria)의 국내 미기록속 및 미기록종에 대한 연구

Two aerophytic cyanobacteria from the rockwall of Haje port located in Geum river, Korea, were isolated in unialgal cultures and submitted to polyphasic evaluation. The filaments of the populations presented solitary or several to many parallel arranged. The straight trichomes were not attenuated with rounded apical cell. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rDNA sequences indicated that these populations formed the same clade with Wilmottia murrayi and had 99% or greater DNA similarity. Through the ultrastructure of the TEM, these populations showed parietal thylakoid arrangement, which coincides with family Coleofasciculaceae. From the above results, we reported the newly recorded genus Wilmottia, and species W. murrayi in Korea.
